Say Nothing, Act Casual: May 2013

Say Nothing, Act Casual. And keep yourself out of trouble. Thursday, 30 May 2013. My yoga epiphany and girl crush. This is not me. Or Tania. I have a tiny crush on my yoga teacher. Her name is Tania. What I love about Tania, is that while she's an expert yoga instructor, she isn't particularly thin. She's by no means overweight, but she's just.well.normal shaped. Soft and a little roly around the middle. It's similar I think to the face vs bum conundrum we all have to decide upon. There are those who...

Say Nothing, Act Casual: What would Future Bec say?
http://saynothingactcasual-becthewordsmith.blogspot.com/2014/07/what-would-future-bec-say.html
Say Nothing, Act Casual. And keep yourself out of trouble. Wednesday, 2 July 2014. What would Future Bec say? 5 to 2. That's it. So simple yet so hungry. So all of Term 2 (9 weeks) I've been doing the 5:2 diet. Can I call it a diet? I'm not sure if we are supposed to call it a diet. Not when I'm supposed to be telling my kids it's just about eating healthily all the time. So, if my kids ask, I've been doing the "5:2 eat more healthy all the time not diet". Why does it work for Richard Glover and my frien...

Say Nothing, Act Casual. And keep yourself out of trouble. Monday, 29 April 2013. MovieWorld, or How to hemorrhage money without really trying. MovieWorld is, apparently, Hollywood on the Gold Coast. It's not. Trust me. Actually, I think that tag line is maybe from a few years ago. When we arrived we were firstly amazed by the number of cars entering the car park. Every single one had NSW number plates. More like NSW on the Gold Coast. Hold on to your hats people. An ice-cream as big as his head. We had ...

Say Nothing, Act Casual. And keep yourself out of trouble. Thursday, 28 February 2013. Casual observations of life. When I am busy Saying Nothing and Acting Casual I notice things. Because I am so observant. This is NOT us. For one thing, the sky is blue. Preparing for Coastrek when the weather is stupendously awful is not exactly fun. It's kind of like I'm going away for the weekend, with none of the fun of actually going anywhere. I feel so unworthy. My children talk too much, all the time and over eac...

Say Nothing, Act Casual. And keep yourself out of trouble. Thursday, 31 January 2013. Acts of stupendous laziness. Lazy, I am. I'm so lazy, I can't even construct the first sentence of this post properly. I love a short cut, easy street, the quick fix, a no brainer. I hate the person who said "to every complex problem, there is an answer which is simple, neat.and wrong". Oh Come ON. What a spoilsport they were. The following heinous acts of laziness exemplify my attitude. The towels hanging out to dry on...

Say Nothing, Act Casual. And keep yourself out of trouble. Tuesday, 25 June 2013. Renovation progression and abandonment. So this morning, this happened. And look what we took delivery of! I am completely beside myself with excitement. Windows! The wood smells delicious. Like I'm walking through a Swedish Forest. Or something. And they've taken the partition away from the loo. This is a little disturbing. When I come down the stairs I feel like I should shout out in case someone's on the toot. We might t...

I know you know this. You have been counting down the days. So have I, but in a different way. We now get to spend lots of time together, which I love and also don't love completely all the time. Apart from you making me cups of tea, I have decided that holiday kitchen hours are to be strictly enforced. Once the b...

Say Nothing, Act Casual: October 2013

Say Nothing, Act Casual. And keep yourself out of trouble. Wednesday, 30 October 2013. Watching him walk away. Today Josh had his orientation at a new school. We were running late and I was driving, so I threw he and Mike out of the car outside the front gate and went off to find a park. No ceremony, no heartfelt farewell for his four hours away in a new environment. If he wished I'd been a little bit more formal in my goodbye rather than shouting 'Get out, we're in a no standing zone! He didn't let on.

Say Nothing, Act Casual. And keep yourself out of trouble. Wednesday, 28 May 2014. Girls weekends are a rare diamond of super awesomeness. Going away with your girlfriends is a treat. Several days child free, lots of time to finish sentences, discuss important matters and (this is the best part) to only take care of yourself. The only socks I picked up off the floor were my own. That in itself, is a miraculous treat. I'm not quite as necessary as we all think I am. And I like it. The logistics of leaving.
